Pass Labs Preamps - New Line Soon?

The Pass Labs XP-10, XP-20 and XP-30 have been out for several years now (since 2009ish).  The just came out with a new top-of-the-line pre, the Xs, with an MSRP of $38K.  

Any thoughts on when they may come out with more "affordable" upgrades to the XP Line?  It seems like it should be about time.

I would, but I don't expect I'd get an answer.  Theoretically, once a new line is announced, the demand for the old line drys up.  I thought there might be some PL gurus here that could make an educated guess based on the age of the existing line and the release of Xs.

The X model amps came out in 1998, followed by the .5's around 2009 and the .8's in 2014.  Seems logical the next generation preamps would be coming soon.

Ben-

having heard the XP-10 & XP-20, I cannot imagine a better SS pre-amp!

I would be interested in learning more about Pass Labs integrated amps.
IME, this is SS nirvana! Also, outstanding customer service.

Keep me posted & Happy Listening!
